The Ultimate Meal

I've been using The Ultimate Meal every day for 5 years. It is a super high quality meal replacement powder. Note: I do not work for the company. I have written this blog entry simply becasue I want others to know about this great product.

It's 100% Vegan, Mostly Organic, and High Raw. I recommend reading through the entire website about it (Check out the FAQ, too).

Great for weight loss – The Ultimate Meal is great for helping people lose weight, it will help you stay "full" up to 6-hours after drinking it. Many people enjoy it for breakfast and lunch or breakfast and dinner. Some have it for all of their meals on some days.

Great pre / post workout shake – Great for before or after a heavy duty workout. It's filled with carbs from the fruit, protein, and nutrients – lots of fuel for your muscles!

Convenient and travel worthy – It's fast and easy to make. I love that I can take this with me when I'm traveling. It's important to make sure I'm still packing my body with nutrients when I'm not at home.

So, how does it taste? I'm totally down with it! It's good.

I took some photos for you to see how I make mine on most days – 2/3 of a banana, 4 strawberries, a handful of blueberries, handful of assorted nuts, soy milk or almond milk, one scoop of The Ultimate Meal – then I blend it…

You can purchase it from Amazon at the best price you will find on the internet!
